Now that we've launched the Manifund Regranting program, we'd like to find more money to pay for stuff like this! So far, Manifold for Charity has received ~$2.4m in funding:
$1.5m from a single anonymous donor, for regranting
$400k from Survival and Flourishing Funds, unrestricted
$500k from Future Fund, for the manifold.markets/charity program
~$10k from a wedding
We'd like to raise a total of ~$10m by the end of the year, to distribute via regrantors, impact certs, or other systems we come up with.
Funders we're currently considering include:
OpenPhil
Jaan Tallin
Vitalik Buterin
Schmidt Futures
(we haven't approached any of them yet, and who knows if they will be on board)
I'd like to issue 3 types of bounties:
M200 bounty for every donor suggested who I hadn't previously considered and end up reaching out to
M500 bounty for making a warm intro; and
M2000 bounty for every donor that we end up receiving significant amounts of money from
The subreddit r/neoliberal regularly participates in charity drives for the Against Malaria Foundation and is pretty pro-forecasting in general.
Their last fundraiser brought in $150,000 in donations.
Perhaps the mod team there would be interested in a collaboration?
